A groundbreaking, live event airing throughout the month of June it's the ultimate "Swiss Family Robinson" as ten celebrities are dropped into the heart of the jungle to face fun and comedic challenges designed to test their survival skills.

... they show them flying over the"jungle" for miles and miles, then they have to hike all day until they get to their camp. Which is apparently in the back yard of a resort, since there are overhead lights all night long, remote-control cameras on posts all around them... and where does the electricity come from? Anybody hear a generator running? No, they have extension cords going fifty feet up to the nearby building. Even the "daylight" looks odd, all of the plants around the campsite look as if they were placed there by a landscaper, and there is nary an insect in sight (ever been someplace tropical after dark??).... the whole thing seems very hokey. Not to mention the "celebrities" showing up for their last big "task", all looking clean and dry with fluffly hair, as if they had just rolled off the bed in their hotel room. Huge contrast to filthy, sweaty and soaked as they were five minutes previous.

You know the world is turning topsy-turvy when Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt refuse camera coverage on national television. Heidi and Spencer, the married couple who had yet to meet a reality TV opportunity they weren't in love with, have reportedly quit "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" And after all that hard work Spencer put into his rap theme song? Tragic.

The Unambiguously Shameless Duo (I think that's their official title now) had already threatened to walk off the show twice during last night's premiere but kept coming back for more. They quit for real, however, after the live portion of last night's show. Good to know they couldn't walk away while cameras were rolling. These aren't amateur fame grubbers we're dealing with.

They haven't exactly been the most loved people on the show (mind you, this is a show that stars Janice Dickinson, Stephen Baldwin, and Sanjaya) and were reportedly upset they weren't getting special treatment due to their perceived "elevated" celeb status.

Apparently after Spencer threw one of his many fits, other contestants snuck in and stole Heidi's dry shampoo (OH. NO. THEY. DIDN'T!). Spencer, in turn, smacked a water bottle away from the hands of one of the other contestants and hid wrestler Torrie Wilson's bag.

Heidi, in defense of her husband's actions, explains, "My husband is a very new Christian."

Wait, do new Christians have a stronger proclivity toward water bottle-smacking and bag-stealing? Guess I haven't read the "Newly Christian Guide for Dummies" lately.

Either way, everyone can rest assured knowing that Speidi's actions will return to being carefully documented in the safety of red carpets, swag parties, and Robertson Boulevard.

i though i saw this posted as a thread and was going to comment. but i can't find the thread??so i made a new one.OMG i did not think i would like this show in a million years but i watched it last night cause i wanted to see spidy and sanjaya, so it was rolf ,spidy left the show 3 x's ,and of cours spencer was in some ones face over nothing, what a great train wreck it was, i love steven balldwin and one of the cast aways called him baby baldwin love that,i hope tonights epi. is as good as last night it might just hold me over till bb starts. i don't like the bugs and stuff but it was freeken hesterical to watch theas cast aways it is like gillagain's island on crak. lol

Not even the promise of three weeks' worth of prime-time self-promotion was enough to keep Heidi and Spencer Pratt from jumping ship on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!

Though their first attempt at quitting NBC's jungle-set reality competition didn't stick, Speidi has, for the second and ostensibly final time, vowed to abscond from Costa Rica after being unable to shampoo rough it.

All told, the duo's run will last just two episodes. They will appear in a taped segment of tonight's show, but will not take part in the live portion of the telecast. Sources confirm to E! News that the Pratts are scheduled to return to Los Angeles just after midnight tonight.

"They're leaving right after the live portion of the show," an NBC source said. "The fact that they are leaving the show and deserting their charities is lame."

Meanwhile, I'm a Celebrity... producers are trying to replace the rapping, breakdown-prone couple with one or two other camera-ready personalities, who would continue playing for the couple's chosen charity.

The identity of the replacement(s) remains hush-hush at this point, though the DailyFill reports that producers are doing their best to keep it in the family, naming Daniel Baldwin, whose brother Stephen is already on the show, and Heidi's sister Holly Montag as the top contenders.

I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! runs Monday through Thursday on NBC, with the finale set for June 24.

I caught a little bit of this show and was wondering if anyone was really enjoying it. I guess not.

But it does get darker earlier in Costa Rica this time of year. Darkness also depends on north and south location. Kind of like Alaska having lots of light in the summer. Also, in the summer it stays lighter longer in Minnesota than Texas even though they are the same time zone. But in winter, it stays lighter longer in Texas than in Minnesota.

Watching him get his hand all chewed up was NOT entertaining in the least. Ye GODS! How do they know the rats weren't carrying diseases?

Janice did seem sick.. but she was gross!!!!!!! If I wasn't lolling around in TV Wasteland right now, I probably wouldn't even watch.
